Undercutting

[Rhysati]

undercutting by 1 gil is fine

tanking the market because you think itll sell ‘faster’ isn’t.

Who made you the market czar? If someone wants to buy up everything they can worth over a million gil and sell it all for 1 gil a piece because it makes them happy? Great!

And if they want to undercut your prices, sell their item extremely quick and put more stuff up for sale in the now freed slots? Awesome!

Just because it isn't how /you/ want someone to play the game doesn't mean it's wrong. It's just wrong for /you/.

The problem with your logic is that by the time people area ready to buy the stacks of whatever you bought for 600gil to sell at 4000gil, the original seller will have already gathered another few stacks to sell at an abnormally low price. No one knows if they've been gathering non-stop the whole time or if they're just bots. People are free to do whatever they want in the market but it doesn't make it any more interesting if they screw it up for everyone. It's essentially market griefing and while not against the rules per-se unless they use bots to do it, it's still a pain in the arse to deal with. There are quite literally people fine making a 40k gil profit when they could be making 700k gil profit instead. But they chose to grief the market and keep griefing because for some reason in their mind, it's a reasonable price and they would feel guilty selling it anything higher. They don't realize that by doing this, they are upsetting people who are working their butt off to hand-craft or gather these things and consider the actual cost of everything involved up to that point. If they feel guilty for "overcharging" then they should also feel guilty for upsetting the market.
